GSP isn't scared of anyone, but he sure as hell took the easy fight and used the old "we have bad blood" excuse. Hendricks has the chance to put his lights out with one punch. Diaz does not. There are some fighters that like to test themselves against the best. Unfortunately since GSP tapped to strikes to a 155er, he has not been that guy. It's a shame too as he's so damn good.

you crack me up so much! thanks man!

Hey man, not a problem. I call em as I see em. I've always been a huge GSP fan but everyone can see what happened here and they can't even use the excuse that "he fights who the UFC puts in front of him" bs. Dana clearly stated that GSP picked and chose this opponent. Think about it. You have a guy that hasn't come close to finishing top guys in years versus a guy who's been KOing top 5 opponents and is clearly much more dangerous. Hell, I'd prob choose the weaker, easier fight too.

He took the easy way out and that is not debatable.

1) gsp has earned the right to pick an opponent

b) how do you know gsp picked diaz because he's the easier fighter? couldnt he have chosen nick for money? for the grudge? for the fact that gsp was already supposed to fight diaz before?

potato) i understand you believe hendro to be the more dangerous fighter, but do you think diaz is not dangerous at all?

i think gsp dismantles both of them, but i'm glad to see the first one be diaz.

Love watching Johnny fight, hate listening to him talk. "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying?" "You know what I mean?

I guess Jon Jones picking easier opponents in lower weight classes is starting to trickle down to the other champs. Well, at least GSP is picking the 'easier' fight in his own division!

But Jones has mentioned on numerous occasions that he wants to move up to HW

And Silva is 3-0 at LHW

Look, I don't actually think Anderson is scared of Jones, but I also hate when Anderson fanboys try to claim that GSP is scared of Anderson.

If people want to say GSP is scared of Anderson then you can easily make the case that Anderson is scared of Jones.

I think that neither Georges nor Anderson are scared of anyone, and are just doing what they feel is best for their careers.

I agree man. These guys fight...they're not scared. But they all probably know deep down who they're not going to have a great chance against. Personally. .I want to see Silva vs GSP and vs jbj. But I dont think it'll happen.

GSP is not scared of Hendricks and will likely win the fight. It's just business. Hendricks has one punch knockout power. GSP is just picking up a big payday before subjecting himself to the risk of getting caught by Hendricks. It's risk management. Does that make it right? No, not really.

CaptainWoody - I don't think GSP is scared of Johny, I think he wants to smash Diaz. It's personal and he's just talking the fight up that Diaz deserves it more for legitimacy but in reality he wants to beat up Nick.

This...

There was already the history and people was saying that GSP was scared of Diaz.

I would rather see this happen now than later. Either one of them start a losing streak and we never get to see GSP vs Diaz which was the most talked about fight just over a year ago or they get to fight but it won't have much meaning to it if it happens much later. People would say that they are not the same fighter they were years ago and it would have been a different fight if it would have happened much sooner.
